Kanye West Snaps at Paparazzi For Asking Kim K. if She Misses Reggie Bush (Photos)
The most interesting thing about this is while Kanye is going crazy, Kim Kardashian is laughing.
What that tells me is that she enjoys the attention whoring and the fact that Kanye is annoyed about the Reggie Bush questions.
Speaking of Reggie Reg.
While Kimmy and Yeezy were eating dinner at PRIME 112, Reggie Reg and his pregnant girlfriend were eating across the street. The Paparazzi according to TMZ asked Kimmy if she wanted to say congrats to Reggie and his lady. They also asked some questions about if she hurt about Reggie moving on without her and that is what set Kanye off.
This was probably all an elaborate set up, because honestly they have nothing else better to do.
Nice see through skirt Kimmy, we all appreciate that.

|Phnom Penh '86
Sir, Yes, Sir! is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by retired army colonel Juan Cortez from his yacht docked in the Ocean Bay Marina in Ocean Beach/Viceport, Vice City.
Colonel Cortez, after calling Tommy back to his ship, tells him that he has a certain buyer who wants a piece of "military hardware", which is currently being taken with a military convoy from the north of Little Haiti to the military garage in Viceport. Colonel Cortez wants Tommy to steal it and take it to his lock-up in Little Havana for him to collect and then sell. Tommy drives to the convoy and steals the tank. He then drives it to the lock-up before it self destructs, while at the same time avoiding attacks from both the remaining army soldiers and the police.
Post-mission phone call script
This phone call may instead be triggered after completion of the mission Supply & Demand, depending on which mission is completed last
Kent Paul: Awright me ol'china! It's Paul. I might have a little result for you, but I need to speak to you in person. I'm enjoying a little R&R at the Club Malibu. Reckon you're gonna owe me a favor or two after this, sunshine. I'll see you later.
The reward for completing the mission is $2,000. The mission Death Row for Kent Paul is unlocked, if the mission Supply & Demand has also been completed. Also, the ability to obtain a 6-star wanted level is now unlocked.
- Once entering the tank, security protocol Delta India Echo is triggered. In the military phonetic alphabet Delta India Echo spells DIE. The protocol self-destructs the stolen tank after a short amount of time, killing the operator.
- The 3-star wanted level obtained in this mission when stealing the Rhino is permanent, until the player delivers the tank to the garage. It cannot be reduced even with the use of cheats or by collecting police bribes, nor can it be increased even with the use of cheats or repeated havoc against police/civilians.
- While fighting the military convoy, the player's wanted level will self-reset to 0.

The Summer Intensive Day Treatment Program is designed for children and adolescents who are experiencing behavioral problems that interfere with their functioning and are related to autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, or a developmental disorder. The program is an 8-week, full-day program with services beyond those in traditional summer programs.
The program provides multidisciplinary treatment to reduce or eliminate symptoms that affect the child's potential for success at home and school. This program helps children and their families manage chronic symptoms by choosing the most successful treatment option.
Available services include medication management, behavioral strategies for increasing positive behaviors, coping and problem solving skills, and social and leisure activities. Education for parents is available about the child's treatment and skills learned in the program.
Program staff work toward helping a child make a smoother transition to a new school year and reducing the potential of losing behavioral or social skills learned during the previous school year. For children who are accepted under ESY, the program will work with the child's Individualized Education Plan (IEP). This program is not intended to target academic goals included in a child's IEP, such as reading or math. Instead, it addresses the behavioral, social, and community goals in the IEP. Additionally, summer staff consult with each child's school to ensure consistency of care during the summer.
We consider the most important members of the treatment team to be the child and his or her family. Other team members include a psychiatrist, nurse clinical specialist, behavioral specialist, and educational specialist who work with every family in the program. These professionals develop individualized treatment plans for every child upon admission and regularly meet to review the child's progress. They will change treatment goals as needed which helps active involvement in the child's treatment.
Children and adolescents, from ages 5 to 18, with Autism Spectrum Disorder or other developmental disabilities and who also have a DSM psychiatric diagnosis are accepted in the program. These children and adolescents typically have behavior concerns such as hyperactivity, aggression, tantrums, depression, anxiety, or poor social skills that interfere with their ability to reach their full potential. Adolescents from ages 18 to 21, who meet the above criteria, will be evaluated on an individual basis.
All children must have a psychiatric evaluation to be accepted into the summer program. This evaluation includes looking at referral concerns and gathering psychosocial, educational, medical, developmental, and family histories. Past experiences with psychiatric interventions, therapies, hospitalizations, and medication are part of the evaluation.
Children are accepted to the program under partial-hospitalization or the extended school year (ESY). Children accepted in ESY come to the program through an agreement with the school district.
The Summer Intensive Day Treatment Program is an 8-week program beginning in the middle of June and ending mid-August (closed July 4). Hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Either the family or the school district must provide transportation. The program does not provide daily transportation.

I have one word for a gift to get your gardening dad for Father's Day: compost.
I have one word for a gift to get your gardening dad for Father's Day: compost.
Now don't go off to the nearest garden center to buy it. The best compost is the kind you make yourself, and then keep on making it.
Compost is basically sped-up partially decomposed organic matter, the same process that breaks down organic matter in soil.
According to the University of Missouri Extension, compost is not a fertilizer. It is a soil amendment that in our heavy Missouri clay soils helps bind soil particles together. In my garden, compost breaks up clay, making it easier for roots to get through and allows water to move.
It also makes the environment better for soil microorganisms that release nutrients and other growth-promoting materials in soil, which then helps plants, but compost has to be in soil for awhile before those microorganisms benefit.
What's more astounding to me is that nationwide, 75 percent of materials in typical landfills could be composted. In Missouri, it's illegal to put leaves, grass clippings and other garden refuse in landfills so why not let them help improve gardens.
Besides adding to soil, compost makes a nice mulch and, when mixed with a small amount of soil, compost is a great medium to start seeds.
The easiest composter I have ever seen was my youngest brother's black bags in St. Paul, Minn., the year I helped him landscape his historical old house in a tree-covered neighborhood. We had bagged a good 20 bags of leaves, along with some kitchen scraps, and piled them behind his detached garage, fully intending to take them to the recycling center.
On a return visit one year later, I found the black bags greatly deflated but full of "black gold," a lovely crumbly black mixture which is a sure sign the compost is ready to use. After mixing it up in their garden and allowing it to "cook" for several months, the compost made the little vegetable garden they were trying to grow explode.
Well, maybe calling it a vegetable garden isn't fair. It was more like one huge cucumber patch since two, very sturdy, wild rabbits had made quick meals of the rest.
If you want to start small, I would get a large plastic bucket with a cover, old metal garbage can or plastic container with a lid. It needs to be at least 3 feet by 3 feet to have enough room for compost material to heat up.
When I made my first composter out of an old metal garbage can, I added an old cotton pillow case so that I could easily pull it out, shake it to mix and put it back in the can.
That's when I also started saving kitchen scraps in a small plastic bag in the bottom freezer basket so that the scraps didn't smell. When the bag was full, it was dumped in the composter.
If you want to get fancy, you can select from a variety of ready-made composters. Some are on stands to help make the mixing process easier by turning them. Then there's a very popular one that has two separate compartments and legs tall enough to easily get a wheelbarrow under it.
My sister-in-law and I gave my brother in Virginia one of those last year, only to find where he lives he had to buy dry leaves at $50 a bag to mix with his kitchen scraps.
My sister-in-law still says she can't get over how thrilled he was to get a huge box of Missouri-grown dry oak leaves I shipped for $17.
If your dad likes to get involved in projects, give him a card that says let's go shopping for a compost container, or buy materials to work together on making one. You may be surprised at how quickly you outgrow your first one.
In addition to whatever you decide to do about the compost container, I would suggest talking to everyone in the family about how they can help and have everyone sign dad's card with their pledge to compost.
That means when they peel an orange, make coffee, drink tea, finish reading the newspaper — all those items are compost-bound. Even old phone books can be torn up and composted, as well as sawdust and washed out egg shells.
It will take a little adjustment but once everyone is pitching in, you will be surprised at how quickly you will be making compost and improving your garden enough that you can successfully grow flowers and vegetables — in some cases using less chemicals and fertilizers.
Next, I'll go over in more detail what you can and can't compost, but in the meantime, to all my wonderful gardening dad friends — Happy Father's Day!

Former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar put forth a dominating performance Sunday night at The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale, finishing BJ Penn and earning his third victory over "The Prodigy."
Edgar, who has won two straight following three losses in UFC world title fights, admitted the win was an emotional one.
"It's bittersweet," he said. "I said I wanted to finish him, but I almost feel bad about it at the same time.
"Going into this fight, I didn't worry about what BJ did, I worried more about what I was going to do."
For Edgar (17-4-1), the win was the first time he's finish an opponent inside the Octagon since a 2011 TKO victory over Gray Maynard. It was his fifth career knockout finish.
While Jose Aldo is currently injured and will not be able to defend his featherweight title as planned in August against Chad Mendes, Edgar isn't going to sit and wait for his rematch.
"I want to fight for the title, or a fight that will get me close to a title shot," Edgar said.

Everyone likes Gary Hall.
But that doesn't mean everyone is on board with his plan to build a tennis center at his North Second Street property.
For a second time, Hall's proposal to add an 80-by-120-feet-long stand-alone tennis complex at Waste Technology Services was submitted to the Village of Lewiston Planning Board. A standing-room-only crowd of about 30 came out Monday to voice opinions on the project. To a man, each speaker called Hall a good person. Some, however, expressed concern about his project.
"As you can see, it's going to be a first-class building," said Harold Hibbard of Park Lane. "The Halls have been good to Lewiston. We should be good to them."
"This isn't about Mr. Hall, though. This is about the procedures - how you went about this issue. And it was totally wrong," Robert Martinez said. He lives across the street from WTS, and serves on the Town of Lewiston Planning Board. "You went about it in a quick way. You tried to push it through, and then you tried to tell everyone, like, 'Where you been? This has been going on for a while.' This was done without people knowing about it."
In March, both the Planning Board and the Village Board of Trustees gave Hall the go-ahead to start construction. However, as preliminary work began outside WTS, the municipal committees were informed they did not follow proper protocol. Subsequently, their approval was withdrawn.
Last month, Town of Lewiston Supervisor Steve Reiter sent a letter to village Mayor Terry Collesano stating the Planning Board was "poorly informed" when it approved Hall's submittal.
"The Town of Lewiston recently learned that the Village approved a site plan on March 11, 2013 submitted by Waste Technology Services, Inc. to build a 60' x 120' x 35' free standing indoor tennis facility at 435 North Second Street (on) its premises," Reiter wrote. "A Special Permit for the operation of Waste Technology Services, Inc. was issued in 2002 and the Special Permit does not permit the use of the premises as a tennis facility. The proposed facility is being built within 500' of the Town of Lewiston and prior to site plan approval the matter should have been referred to the Niagara County Planning Board pursuant to General Municipal Law §239-m with notice to the Town pursuant to General Municipal Law §239-nn. Depending on the proposed location of the structure in relation to the Niagara River it may also have been necessary for the Village to notify the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Referral of the matter is required for both site plan approval and the issuance of a special permit.
"As you may know, the Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) submitted by the applicant pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act in support of site plan approval must also be submitted to the County Planning Board. The Town brings this to your attention as it appears that the Village Planning Board relied on a two year old EAF dated February 7, 2011 detailing an addition to the existing building while the site plan which was recently approved details a standalone building situated closer to Lower River Road. It is obvious then, that the EAF should have been amended and that the Village Planning Board was poorly informed about the site plan at the time it was approved. This is confirmed by the brief minutes of the Village Planning Board meetings held on January 14 and March 11, 2013 wherein board members indicate that their approval of the site plan is conditioned on the fact that there were no revisions to the 2011 site plan approval. In fact, the site plan was materially altered by the change in location of the building with the result that a large number of large, old and significant oak trees have already been cut down on the site."
Martinez said the special use permit only applies to the principal building, and not to the tennis center, which he called an accessory unit. Reiter, in his letter, wrote, "it appears the premises are located in a residential district and that the Village issued the applicant Special Use Permit to conduct limited personal services business. A tennis facility does not appear to be a permitted use and in such circumstances a municipality would normally require an amendment to the Special Permit after appropriate public hearings. It does not appear that any public hearings were held regarding this additional use and (although the Village enjoys jurisdiction over this application) the Town of Lewiston encourages the Village to comply with its own zoning and planning regulations in this regard."
David Giusiana, who is both chairman of the Planning Board and Hall's architect on the indoor tennis center, said the SEQRA form was not completed prior to March's meeting and plan approval. He said the village was taking steps to correct that oversight, and that the proposal is now before the Niagara County Planning Board.
Developer Sylvester "Sonny" Barone and his wife, Kathy, live and own property north of the WTS site. Sonny said he was out of town when the Planning Board approved the project two months ago. On Monday, the Barone's attorney, Maxwell Coykendall, said the Planning Board was "putting the cart before the horse" in approving Hall's facility.
"There are a lot of detailed zoning issues - legal issues of the code - that need to be worked out," he said. "There is a principal use on this property right now, and that is an office space. That office space was approved through some pretty extraordinary measures about 10 years ago when WTS came in and they said, 'Hey, you know what? We'd like to come to this parcel, and we'd like to use it as a business.' The problem is, this is a R-1-A district and the code does not permit that.
"But they came and they made certain representations. Those representations (were) they were going to operate this solely as an office, they had no plans to expand, and they wanted just a nice, quiet environment. Your code provides for one principal use of a property. Any other use is an accessory use."
Oak Street resident Jack Armstrong said he had anxiety about WTS when it moved into his neighborhood a decade ago. Since then, however, he said Hall has been an ideal neighbor.
"There was a lot of concern about the usage of that facility 10 years ago when it was vacated," he said. "I can say, as a neighbor being 200 yards away, it's enhanced our neighborhood. Gary Hall, and WTS in general, have been wonderful neighbors, and I see no reason why we wouldn't support this."
Sonny Barone said he spoke Monday morning with Hall. "I think we need more time to talk," he told the Planning Board. "I don't think that everything that was done by this board was done properly."
He asked if Hall could build the tennis center on the south side of WTS.
Hall was not in attendance at the meeting. His son, Brian, said the plan is set and the tennis court will not move. "We want to keep it where it is. We don't have any reason to discuss this any further. We're happy where it's at; we're happy moving forward just as it's presented here tonight."
Kenneth P. Friedman of HodgsonRuss, representing Hall, declined comment.
The Planning Board did not specifically address its previous approval, or Reiter's letter. Members approved the tennis center concept (Giusiana did not vote), and sent the proposal back to the Village Board for a final verdict. The WTS EAF and a motion to approve the development plan are both on Monday's agenda. The Village Board meeting begins at 6 p.m. in the Red Brick Municipal Building, 145 N. Fourth St.
In February 2011, the Planning Board and the Village Board approved Hall's first tennis center proposal, which was a 60-by-120-foot expansion to WTS.
Hall then offered to put his plan on hold and spearhead funding for a public recreation center. He offered to work with the village, the Town of Lewiston or Niagara University. During this time, his building permit expired. When he couldn't find a partner for a public facility, he revisited the idea of a tennis center on his own property.
His second plan was for a freestanding structure, which would be built on the north side of his parking lot.

Forced to go to World Superbike for the 2012 season, Hiroshi Aoyama will return to the big show for the 2013 season, with the Avintia Blusens team. Trading his Honda CBR1000RR superbike for a Kawasaki-powered CRT entry, Aoyama will perhaps miss the days when he was on a Honda RC212V prototype, but certainly won't miss the Pirelli-shod production machine, which he only managed to race to a 18th place championship points finish.
Entirely unimpressive in WSBK, Aoyama has something that many CRT riders do not: experience on the tricky Bridgestone tires. That fact alone should make Aoyama a potent weapon for the Avintia Blusens squad, which has struggled to develop its CRT entry — due partially to the talent on the machine. With the help of Aoyama's MotoGP experience, and 250GP Championship title behind him, the BQR team might find some more traction and direction with its work — having Hector Barbera along for the ride as a teammate won't hurt either.

The Schwalbe Durano Plus (wire bead) offers maximum puncture protection for race bikes. This lightweight tyre features their SmartGuard belt that offers a unique level of protection for racing tyres. It's also their most puncture protected road tyre.

|700c (622)
SmartGuard Protection:
SmartGuard is the most effective protection belt available for bicycle tyres. A substantial 5mm thick layer of flexible India rubber offers durable protection from sharp objects such as tac's, thorns, stones etc.
These tyres are for racing style bikes that use clincher/hooked rims, these are the most common fitment and hook onto the rim and require an inner tube. There is a wide choice of tyres within this category and the right choice is important. Lighter tyres will accelerate quickly, but will be more prone to punctures so getting a balance is extremely important. If you require a tyre for all round use look for something with puncture protection, an average TPI(Threads Per Inch) and average weight. If you require a fast tyre and speed is the only thing that matters look for a low weight folding tyre with high TPI. If durability is your priority and speed is not so important look towards the puncture resistant tyres and consider going for a wider tyre, these will be less prone to punctures and offer a bit more comfort. For wet road conditions a triple compound or winter tyre is a good choice, these use a softer compound on the cornering surface to maximise grip.
For over 70 years Schwalbe have dominated the two wheeled tyre industry in Germany and Europe, being voted best MTB tyre brand in Germany for the past two years. From the very early beginnings where the company founder, Earnest-Wilhelm Bohle capitalised on the developing cycle industry, to the ultra modern distribution facility near Cologne, Schwalbe have continued to design and manufacture some of the finest bicycle tyres available. Schwalbe's success is due in part to the effort it makes in product development from lab tests at the manufacturing facility to the hardest proving grounds of all, professional cycle racing. 'Team Gerolsteiner' achieved a very creditable 7th place overall in the 2004 Tour de France and the unique performance of team captain Davide Rebellin winning three major classic races back to back using Schwalbe tyre. Other notable succeses include Normann Stadler winning the infamous Ironman triathlon in Hawaii, riding Schwalbe Stelvio tyres.

Forums On The Low Post Count List - Please Read - Updated 8/10/2018
Hi everyone. We've implemented new rules for the forums on the Low Post Count List.
Up until now, the Low Post Count List has been shown on the Moderators Forum, but the Moderators and Managers and I felt that it would be a good idea to post this list here so everyone can see it, so no one can say that they weren't aware that a board was in danger of closing if it closes.
Therefore, here is the current Low Post Count List with the date each forum was placed on the list and the date they'll be taken off the list. I will update this list every month or as necessary.
More information about this topic can be found at the individual forums on this list.
Thank you.
The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it - and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. - John F. Kennedy
There are those who look at things the way they are and ask why - I dream of things that never were and ask why not. - Robert F. Kennedy

LeBron James finished with 28 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists on Wednesday, as the Miami Heat held off the Milwaukee Bucks, 113-106, in overtime.
Dwyane Wade returned from a two-game absence and matched James with 28 points, while Chris Bosh recorded a double-double with 24 points and 18 boards to help the Heat improve to 5-0 at home for the first time in club history.
Brandon Jennings paced Milwaukee with 19 points, seven boards, six assists and five steals, while rookie John Henson donated a double-double with 17 points and 18 rebounds for the Bucks, who have lost two straight.
The Bucks held a 91-84 advantage with just under five minutes left in regulation, but the Heat answered with 10 straight points, as Ray Allen capped the spurt with a 3-pointer to give Miami a 94-91 edge with 2:48 remaining.
Milwaukee responded with five straight to take a two-point lead before Wade's jumper tied the game, 96-96, with just over a minute remaining.
"We had so many rough moments in the first half and then we were able to battle back right before halftime," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "They played pretty hard in the second half. At 91-84 we were in good position. We had a small margin of error against that team. We kind of fell asleep on them."
Ekpe Udoh finished a hook shot at the other end, but James answered for the Heat, as he pulled down an offensive rebound off a Bosh miss and finished the layup to retie the game with 26.9 ticks on the clock.
The Bucks went to Monta Ellis with the game on the line, but Ellis was unable to connect on a pullup jumper from the right wing. Henson came up with the offensive rebound, but his putback attempt was off the mark.
James corralled the rebound and quickly called timeout to give Miami one final shot with 1.4 ticks on the clock, but Ellis blocked Wade at the other end to send the game to overtime.
Miami scored the first six points of the extra session, as Wade, James and Bosh each donated two points over the first two minutes.
Marquis Daniels trimmed the deficit to four with a jumper, but Miami scored the next five points, as Allen provided the final dagger with a corner 3- pointer to extend the lead to 109-100 with 1:07 remaining.
Earlier in the contest, the Heat used a 15-0 surge late in the first quarter to take a 29-15 edge after one.
"We got off to a great start. We really imposed our type of will in the beginning and got off to an 18-point lead. From there, we just relaxed," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.
Miami continued to front-run in the second and held a 16-point lead with just over four minutes remaining before the Bucks made their run.
Milwaukee scored the next 13 points, including eight from Jennings, before a Samuel Dalembert 3-pointer with less than a second remaining in the half sent the Bucks into the locker room facing a 46-44 deficit.
Both teams shot over 50 percent from the field in a tightly contested third quarter that ended with the Bucks holding a 73-71 lead heading into the final frame.
Game Notes
With his second rebound of the game in the first quarter, Heat forward Udonis Haslem passed Alonzo Mourning (4,808) for the most rebounds in team history. He finished the game with eight boards to move his mark to 4,815 ... Wade missed the last two games with a foot injury ... James has scored at least 20 points in each of his first 12 games this season ... Milwaukee had won three of their last four over the Heat.

Cancers of the Blood Cells (Leukemias)
FDA Approves Gleevec to Treat Leukemia
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), one of four main types of leukemia, strikes about 5,000 people every year. On average, patients live 3-4 years after receiving a diagnosis of CML. Last week, the FDA approved Gleevec (imatinib mesylate, also known as STI 571) as an oral treatment for CML.
Gleevec has been shown to substantially reduce the level of cancerous cells in the bone marrow and blood of treated patients. In clinical trials, 90 percent of patients in the first phase of CML went into remission within the first six months of taking Gleevec. Of patients in the second phase of CML, 63 percent went into remission with Gleevec. The drug produced few side effects.
Additional studies need to be done to determine how long the effects of this drug last, whether patients become resistant to the drug, and, most importantly, whether Gleevec can actually extend a patient's life.
Still, the results are promising. Currently, the only cure for CML is a bone marrow transplant. Even if a patient is lucky enough to find a marrow donor match, the procedure is successful less than 2/3 of the time. Interferon, a widely used treatment for CML, can extend a patient's life for up to two years, but it has several serious side effects and does not cure the disease. Gleevec may be used in patients in the early stage of CML who do not respond to interferon therapy, and in patients in the later stages of CML.
Most people with CML have a chromosomal abnormality, known as the Philadelphia chromosome, in which portions of two different chromosomes are switched. The result is the creation of an abnormal protein that allows the uncontrolled production of white blood cells, which can interfere with the function of other organs in the body. Gleevec blocks a signal sent out by the abnormal protein, thus blocking the rapid growth of white blood cells.
The FDA's approval of the drug came after a surprisingly short 2½ months. Most drugs that, like Gleevec, are granted a priority review, take six months to approve. The approval was based on three separate studies that involved about 1,000 patients with CML. The drug has generated enthusiasm in the medical community because it targets a specific, cancer-causing protein, without damaging other cells.
Scientists at an American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting announced earlier this month that Gleevec had also produced remission in 180 patients with advanced cases of an intestinal cancer known as gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Until now, GIST cancers have been incurable; GIST patients normally die within one year of receiving their diagnosis.

Judith Leiber – Art of the Handbag
September 10 – October 17, 2010
Judith Leiber is widely recognized as a major figure in handbag design, having created more than three thousand different motifs during a career spanning over thirty years. This exhibition, presented in conjunction with Moore's 2010 Visionary Woman Awards, features twenty-five designs that highlight the breadth and range of Judith Leiber's work including examples of early beaded bags from the 1970s to more recent creations from the 1990s.

Her designs transcend objects of utility to become objets d'art placing Leiber in an elite group of designers such as Lalique, Tiffany, and Cartier, creators of high quality products for public consumption that have come to be regarded as art. Judith Leiber retired from designing handbags in 1999, but the power of her vision and creativity continues to inspire and attract new generations of designers, aficionados and collectors. Leiber has received numerous awards and recognition for her work including being the first and only designer in her field to receive the Coty Award (1973) and receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Council of Fashion Designers (1994).

Wendy Ewald - Secret Games: Collaborative Works with Children 1969-1999
Chiapas, Mexico 1991, Graham Gallery: May 22 – September 4, 2010
Six projects 1969 – 1999, Goldie Paley Gallery: June 5 – October 16, 2010
Five projects 1992 – 1998, Levy Gallery: September 10 – October 16, 2010
In the early 1970s, Wendy Ewald was one of the early pioneers in investigating collaboration as part of her artistic practice. Starting as a documentary investigation of places and communities connected to teaching, Ewald's project has evolved over the years to focus on questions of identity and cultural difference working with artists and communities in the United States and throughout the world. In all of these projects, Ewald partners her observational and creative skills with her subjects' visual inventions, encouraging them to use cameras to create portraits of self and community, to articulate their own personal fantasies, dreams, and hopes, and to work directly with her in visual and verbal collaboration. Her early collaborations with children, a process called Literacy Through Photography, have become a model for curriculum that engages students through photography as a means of improving literacy skills and exploring issues of identity and cultural diversity. Ewald herself makes photographs, sometimes giving her negatives to collaborators to mark and write on, mixing the images in such a way that challenges who actually "created" a given image. In blurring the distinction of individual authorship and throwing into doubt the artist's identity, Ewald crosses the line that separates the photographer from the subject and creates a new artistic form. In an exhibition spread across three galleries over five months, Secret Games showcases the scope of Ewald's work and the powerful results of her collaborations with children. The exhibition features approximately 150 photographs along with video installation and project documentation.
The original touring exhibition, Secret Games: Wendy Ewald Collaborative Works with Children, 1969-1999, was organized by the Addison Gallery of American Art, Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, and the Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland. Highlights from the exhibition have been reassembled by Moore College of Art & Design in conjunction with the 2010 Visionary Women Awards and Moore's introduction of Ewald's Literacy Through Photography curriculum into select Philadelphia public schools in 2010-2011 as part of ArtsRising.
Literacy Through Photography in Philadelphia is supported by the William Penn Foundation. The presentation of the exhibition in Philadelphia is supported by The Honickman Foundation.

Philagrafika 2010: The Graphic Unconscious
The Galleries at Moore are one of five venues presenting the exhibition, The Graphic Unconscious in conjunction with Philagrafika 2010, Philadelphia's international festival celebrating the print in contemporary art. Philagrafika 2010 will focus on artistic practices that engage the visual, intellectual and creative frontiers in printmaking and how these approaches relate to social and political issues in the public sphere.
The Graphic Unconscious, the core exhibition of the festival, is curated by José Roca, Philagrafika Artistic Director of Philagrafika 2010, with John Caperton, Curator of Prints and Photographs at the Print Center; Sheryl Conkelton, for Temple Gallery, Temple University; Shelley Langdale, Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Philadelphia Museum of Art; Lorie Mertes, Director/Chief Curator of The Galleries at Moore College of Art & Design; and Julien Robson, Curator of Contemporary Art at Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
On view at Moore College of Art & Design
The projects on view at Moore will highlight artists who employ printmaking in patterning and ornamentation of their work, drawing upon the college's 160-year-long tradition of focus on the fine and applied arts of textile design, graphic design, interior architecture and fashion. The artists—Gunilla Klingberg (Sweden), Virgil Marti (Philadelphia), Paul Morrison (London), Betsabeé Romero (Mexico), and Regina Silveira (Brazil)—have created new works or re-imagined existing pieces that reflect the renewed interest in the creative potential of printmaking strategies traditionally used for patterning, wallpaper, and fabrics when applied to contemporary artistic practice. The environmentally scaled projects wrap walls, cover floors, and obscure windows, transforming the gallery spaces: Gunilla Klingberg's patterned vinyl spans the windows across the college entrance; Betsabeé Romero's imprinted tire tracks and carved tires line the walls of Graham Gallery; Regina Silveira's bold patterns swarm across the floors and climb the walls of the Goldie Paley Gallery; Virgil Marti's reflective wallpaper illuminates the Window on Race Street by day and night; and Paul Morrison's 40-foot-long boldly graphic outdoor mural extends the exhibition into the immediate community.
Gunilla Klingberg: Brand New View
January 29 – April 11, 2010
In Brand New View, Gunilla Klingberg has covered the windows of the college entrance in bright orange vinyl patterns that illuminate the interior of the gallery with vivid patterned light. The large elaborate designs are composed of smaller logos and brands found in supermarkets that have been reconfigured into geometric abstractions that recall Moorish patterns and the designs of Persian carpets and eastern mandalas.
Virgil Marti
January 29 – April 11, 2010
Virgil Marti's window-gallery display of mirror balls, silver Mylar wallpaper, and faux fur is redolent with references to richly decorated Rococo interiors. The effect of silver and white and reflective surfaces creates a slick, cool environment that becomes more "chilling" when bones are revealed to be the underlying patterning in the wallpaper's surface. The space is populated by floating specters as the image of the viewer is dematerialized into a thousand fragments by the multiple mirrored surfaces.
Paul Morrison: Haustorium
January 29, 2010 – ongoing (permanent installation)
20th Street Exterior Wall of Levy Gallery
Paul Morrison's new work at Moore spans the height and length of the college's 40-foot-long exterior wall. It incorporates found images of trees and shrubs culled from various sources from art history and popular culture that are manipulated, edited, and collaged together to create an oddly populated landscape growing out of the cracks in the sidewalk along 20th Street. A single large tulip springs out in the foreground, a hopeful reminder of the spring yet to come and the persistence of nature.
Betsabee Romero: Getting Always Into Another Jail
January 29 – April 11, 2010
In Mexico City, tires on public transportation vehicles are used well past the absence of any tread, which causes many of the city's automobile crashes. For her project at Moore, Betsabeé Romero reclaimed these used tires that have caused so many disasters and carved into them, retreading them with images of species of birds native to various countries. The birds take symbolic flight across the walls and ceiling of the gallery on an imprint of the tread that extends from each tire on long sheets of translucent paper that span the height and length of the gallery.
Regina Silveira: Mundus Admirabilis and Other Plagues
January 29 – April 11, 2010
In Regina Silveira's Mundus Admirabilis and Other Plagues, vinyl is incorporated along with screenprinting on porcelain and embroidery on fabric. The installation invokes the mythology of biblical plagues. Instead of locusts, hail, or pestilence, Silveira uses a domestic setting invaded by common pests to suggest that the plagues in our own time are the images that contaminate our everyday existence: crime and violence, degradation of the environment, corruption, and other ills that invade our lives and psyches.
Elemental / Ornamental
January 16 – March 3, 2010
Transcendence through abstraction and form is the focus of these works in a variety of media by Moore Alumnae Jill Bonovitz '71, Mary Judge '75 and Deborah Warner '69. The show features fragile translucent vessels and wire sculptures by Jill Bonovitz, mesmerizing traces of ink on handmade paper by Mary Judge and poetic fragments of memory and place embedded in encaustic by Deborah Warner. Fluidity between form and meaning is evident in each of the artist's working process and the elemental aspects of their chosen media. Curated by Lorie Mertes, Rochelle F. Levy Director and Chief Curator.
Focus on: Illustrative Portraiture
January 15 – February 15, 2010
In this course taught by instructor Ernie Norcia, juniors and seniors at Moore are introduced to the tools and techniques employed by portrait painters and illustrators. Studio work and a selection of serial paintings from an assignment focused on facial features are included.

text: Named after the poison used by Brazilian Indians to tip their arrow with for hunting, the Wunderlich Curarê is the German tuning house's take on the BMW S1000RR. Clad in the blue and orange colors of Gulf Oil Racing and plenty of carbon fiber and titanium, the Wunderlich Curarê is mix of something new with something old, and celebrates 25 years of the company's business. Making only modest performance enhancements to the S1000RR, Wundrlich has instead focused its efforts on improving the bikes ergonomics and aesthetics (they left the winking headlight in though). Photos and more after the jump.
